Here are some FAQs on Palmistry or Hand reading. And the answers to them.

1) Is palmistry a legitimate, proven science or an art of intuition? Even worse, is it merely unreliable speculation?
There is a vast ancient knowledge about hand reading and this knowledge has been built upon by many good modern authors on palmistry. When it comes to actually using this knowledge, some palmists and hand readers use intuition, astrology, psychology and superstition, and combine it with tidbits of ancient palmistry knowledge to draw conclusions. This tends to discredit palmistry.

Even if intuition is accurate at times, to rely on it or to act as if it is about hand reading is not correct. From the number of emails I get every week from people who have been victims of palmists who make dire, frightening predictions,

The shape of the hand is the most important aspect of hand reading because it is in the context in which the lines are read.

*Nirmala Sitharaman’s hand is on the larger side, firm, with a good thumb, and the fingers are a decent length. The palm, although not broad, is large, and rectangular. Her fingers are mostly straight, with long second and third phalanges. These hand features reveal some broad personality characteristics like a balanced, straightforward

The main features of Jackie Chan’s hand are his broad palm, slightly short, broad fingers, a dominant Apollo finger with a spatulate tip, a shortish, bent and low set Jupiter finger, and developed mounts of Moon, Venus and Lower Mars. He has a good thumb, low set, and the top phalange is a little thick, and his little (pinky) and Saturn (middle) fingers are short. His lines are finely etched and the Headline sloping in the second half of his life.

These hand features give a glimpse as to Jackie Chan the man, and explain, to some extent at least, certain controversial things he has done in his life, like not batting for freedom, as you

Chester Bennington, a famous musician, committed suicide at 41, leaving fans shocked. Was there any indication on Chester Bennington’s hand which gave a clue as to why he did it?

Famous palmists like Cheiro have written about suicidal hands and such hands were mostly of people incapable of living a normal life due to their precarious mental state, unable to function in real life. It was rare for successful and famous people to kill themselves at the time.

Today it is more common. It may flummox ordinary people as to why a successful and famous person would want to die, but the pressures they face are high, and if their self-esteem is tied to continued success, it can lead to depression. Today, in modern times, success is transient, competition ruthless, the public fickle, and drugs and alcohol freely available and used without social stigma, particularly by the rich and famous. Whether related to this or not, the suicide rate amongst famous and successful people is rising, and some of these celebs have been known to suffer from depression and addiction issues.

It is known that Chester Bennington suffered from depression off and on from a young age, and also battled issues with addiction. Is this visible on his hand?

Chester Bennington has a broad palm, a long low-set thumb, and a very highly developed Lower Mars and Jupiter mounts as well as bent fingers.

Check out a photo of his hand here or here. (as he was left-handed, a link to his left hand photographs is provided)

The bent Saturn and Jupiter fingers are similar to that of Kurt Cobain (who also is believed to have committed suicide) although Cobain’s Saturn finger appears to be more severely bent. A significantly bent middle finger does point to a critical, negative attitude, and in Bennington’s hand is exacerbated by the developed third phalange of Saturn, and Moon mount, and poorly developed Upper Mars. These signs can indicate feelings of solitariness and moodiness and lead to feelings of discouragement. These characteristics do not necessarily point to a depressive personality, because finally it depends on the mind. In Bennington’s case the Headline is not clearly visible in photographs on the internet but if one has to guess from one blurred photo, he could cope with reality.

Was his suicide an impulsive act then? There are indications that the suicide was not planned. His hand shows impulsiveness.

If one has to sum up one can say that Bennington’s hands show him to be a moody, lonely person, and a very compassionate one as well. However, his hands also show him to be an extremely aggressive, pushy, controlling and ambitious go-getter. Almost like he was two different people.

People kill themselves when they feel they have no hope, and my theory after studying his hand is that he killed himself because his temperament was at odds with itself, unable to handle the ups and downs that success brings with it in the modern world. And he wanted success like no other.

Virat Kohli’s hand with its broad square palm and the well developed Venus, shortish fingers, strong Upper Moon, good thumb, and strong main lines, shows a healthy, energetic, creative, talented and hard working individual, loving, warm and generous. These are the personality characteristics which leap out at you with a casual glance at the palm.

The fact that his hand has few lines, and they are strong, unbroken and without defects, shows the focus, self-control, and clarity in thinking, and this adds to the determination shown by the thumb. It’s not just that he just good at what he does, he is a good human being, the kind of person who endears himself to others.

It is said that he aggressive and ambitious, but oddly enough these characteristics are shown as subdued in this hand. They are present, but in moderation and in a healthy proportion, and are not what define him. This means that Virat Kohli the human being is not the aggressive, ambitious ‘A’ type personality that he may appear to be. It is a positive indication in my opinion, as he would not rub people the wrong way due to a bombastic approach.

His hand shows humility, a good characteristic for a leader to possess. What is not so good is that his Jupiter finger is a little weak, but taking into account his other characteristics, it does not make him a weak leader, certainly not in the context of his profession. It just means he is a sensitive, humble person, without ego, and willing to accept his mistakes. Along with his talent and determination it does show that he will want to grow and improve himself.

If he were not talented, then these personality characteristics become a hindrance. But cricket captains are where they are because of their sheer talent and thus they do not need a forceful or aggressive approach to demand respect. They automatically command it.

The vulnerability shown by the Jupiter finger and the average or below average Upper Mars, can be countered by outside support in some manner. Whether it is in the form of a person or guru, or an idea. This will increase his self-belief.

Kohli’s hand also shows a kind of flair in the personality, a kind of dramatic style, and this will conceal the insecurity.

(Virat Kohli is an Indian international cricketer who currently captains the India national team).

The main features of Yogi Adityanath’s* hands are his squarish palms, fairly straight, shortish and rounded fingers with thick third phalanges, well-developed mounts especially that of Venus, Mars and Moon, and a few dark, well-etched lines, including a ram-rod straight Fateline, but one which does not start from the base of the hand. The Heartline is a little more pronounced as compared to his other main lines, the thumb phalanges are slightly thick and the Headline and Lifeline are joined considerably.

Mike Pence, the Vice President of the U.S., has a fairly good hand. It's large, broad, with clear, balanced lines. However, he is well-known to have some deeply conservative and controversial views on certain sections of society, and is also known to be quite religious. That was why I was a little surprised to see that his hand did not reveal religious idealism nor narrow views. Not in an extreme way. So what's the real story? Read on…

Mike Pence’s palm and fingers are fairly well balanced with each other, and the fingers are knotty with good first phalanges, slightly short second phalanges, distinctly waisted and supple thumb, a good mercury (little) finger, low-set Jupiter finger, and most important (for a politician) a well developed Venus mount. Lower Mars is developed too, but the plain of Mars, Upper Mars, and the Lunar mount are not as well developed.

What all this shows is that while he is likely to have a staunch belief system,

Rekha’s hands are on the longer side, with long fingers, square palm, long straightish lines and mounts are not excessively developed. Second phalanges are long except that of the thumb (which has a conic tip), finger knots are present (both the first and second), and the index and little fingers (Jupiter and Mercury) appear to be slightly bent. Both these digits have conic tips; the Jupiter finger is slightly short (on her right active hand) and the Mercury finger is low-set. Her head and lifelines are joint for about an inch or so.

Primarily, Rekha is a thinker (she has the 'thinking type' of hand), and reason and objectivity are both an important aspect of her personality. However, her heart

Tayyip Erdogan, the President of Turkey, is one of the most popular leaders Turkey has had. What does his hand reveal?

Some prominent features of his hand are his conic tipped fingers, large fleshy palm, strong mounts of Mars, Jupiter and Moon, a bent and slightly short Jupiter finger, strong Apollo finger with a well-developed third phalange, longish palm and shortish fingers, with a long, slightly sloping Headline and a low set Heartline.

From the hand it is clear that idealism is strongly present in Tayyip Erdogan’s personality, and it can make him inflexible at times. There is also an element of superstitious behavior. These are

Subramaniam Swamy is a controversial politician,, seeming to say the wrong thing at the wrong time and at the wrong place…what makes him so?
His hands can give us an insight...

He has fleshy hands and slightly thick fingers too, including the thumb, but not to an extreme. The mounts of Mercury, Mars and Jupiter are well developed, and the Mercury finger is not too long although quite straight. The Index (Jupiter) finger is bent and the middle (Saturn) finger is a little bent too, and also a little short. The first and second phalanges of the fingers are all long. In photographs the lines on the hand

Boris Johnson, one of the key campaigners for Brexit (the Leave EU Campaign) is a potential prime-ministerial candidate for Britain. However, his hand does not show him to be prime ministerial material.

He has a broad palm, short fingers with the mounts of Moon and Lower Mars very highly developed. Venus is good too, and the fingers of Jupiter and Mercury are slightly bent and the finger of Apollo quite strong. The Saturn finger is a little short, and the lines on the hand are light, and the heartline is a good length. The headline is slightly

Kangana Ranaut* is apparently stubborn, with "high self-esteem, super sensitive, and bold" – words she has used to describe herself. She has also called herself difficult, tough, and someone who has always done what she wanted.

Looking at her delicate features and elf like appearance, one cannot help but wonder whether this is a façade? Bravado? Is Kangana really the badass that she calls herself, from the inside?

Hand Analysis on this blog is mostly from the shape of the hands and fingers taken from scores of photos on the web, not palm prints, as lines are not clearly visible in public photos. More than 30-40 photos are studied for the reading.

Don't be apprehensive about Hand-Reading

Nothing is fated to happen. When we go to a doctor with high BP, are we frightened even though we know what could probably happen if we continue a certain way of life? If we can go to a doctor without being afraid, we can certainly go to a palmist for help. The future is not fixed. Our life is in our hands. A hand-reader gives a diagnosis, and some trends in your life but these trends can be changed. Your character is your destiny.If we change, our lines change and with it our future. Just as no doctor can predict with certainty that a heart attack will happen, a palmist cannot foretell the future with any certainty either. More about this is explained in a post on the blog.
